Incrementing a date

Sometimes you may need to increment a date by one month.
Simply adding 30 days won't do the trick, since some months do have 31 days.. not to forget the issue with leap years.

But there is a simple solution in SysUtils.pas: this unit provides a routine IncMonth().

Use it as in the following snippet:

	var OldDate, NewDate : TDateTime; begin OldDate := .. // now increment by one month NewDate := IncMonth (OldDate, 1); end;
